Mayor Pete is reaching out to the military folks like U.S. Army eunuch Lt. Col.

“Say what you will about Joe Biden, he is still leading the Democratic pack and will continue being its leader for the foreseeable future- what does that tell you?” by Chef Olaf Bologolo

FALL SESSION 2019

BLOG POST #3,310 AT THE AICP-END

348 DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY 2020

Century City, CA 90067, 11-23-2019 Saturday: Well, folks, this past Wednesday night, I arrived home, got out an O’Doul’s, turned on the DVR and watched the Democratic candidates go toe-to-toe and mano a mano against one another in the debate. The octagon was full, there were 10 fortunate candidates vying against one another and only a few of them truly possess the capabilities necessary to move the country forward.

I think everyone was ranked by position. On the left fringe, we saw Sen. Cory Booker from New Jersey, then we saw Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard from Hawaii, and next to her stood Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Minnesota, flanked by Mayor Pete Buttigieg, Indiana, then Sen. Liz Warren, Massachusetts.

In the middle stood former Vice President Joseph R. Biden, next to him was Sen. Bernie Sanders, Vermont, then our homegrown Sen. Kamala Harris, California, then Andrew Yang, and finally Tom Steyer who looked so out of place that I am stunned he even bothered to show up. No one likes or respects the guy yet there he was, Mr. Private Prisons and King Coalmine wealth[i]. Yikes. I would hate to be him.

Now, some of these people are pure loco whereas others come across as somewhat reasonable. Everyone wants to see Trump go down, whether he merely is ejected from office via impeachment or by criminal prosecution followed by a lengthy stint- if not life- in the worst federal prison known to man.

Hmmm, perhaps they can swing a deal with the French and send him off to Devil’s Island? The guy leading that country with mother issues might actually favor a deal like that if it brought the Paris Climate Accord back into being.

The problem with the candidates is that they end up involved in imbroglios with one another because the losers moderating the debacle pit them against one another. Some, like Tulsi, Yang, and the putz Steyer received extraordinarily little attention and mere scraps of time. I am surprised that both Steyer and Yang did not disappear from the stage one by one because the camera focus remained on the “Central Five.”[ii]

I am going to mention something here I think everyone seeking the nomination of the Democratic Party must do. All of them must reach out to a larger constituency instead of playing to the same old same old as they have from the start. Here is how I see things for each of the candidates and you may be surprised by where we end up. Ready? Let’s go:

Congresswoman Gabbard reaches out to the military constituency, to ‘my brothers and sisters in arms’ and ‘how we cannot have any more regime-change wars around the world.’ Bravo, bravo! Loud round of jazz hands for the soon-to-be former congresswoman.

Tom Steyer is following the path of Gov. Jay Inslee[iii]. Remember him? Nope? Well, he is the governor of the great state of Washington who banked everything on climate change. Where is he now? Gone, folks, gone and among the earliest to drop out.

Andrew Yang is seeking the anti-China constituency that wants to beat the Chinese in AI. That is his gigantic thing. Remember, Mr. Yang’s family emanates from Taiwan, which in our view is a province of China. Yang has NO chance whatsoever, even if he gives everyone a thousand bucks per month. Wait. I have not heard him mention that one lately…out the window?

Mayor Pete is reaching out to the military folks like U.S. Army eunuch Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, you know, the guys serving in the rear who live the good life while the grunts in the field are fighting hand to hand and eating hot lead. He also seeks the Bath House vote. There, I said it, yeah, I know, sounds homophobic but it’s the truth and our new patrons will keep us up and running.

Sen. Bernie Sanders: he is seeking the communist vote. Plain and simple. Did you know the CPUSA was an illegal political organization for a long, long time? When Eugene V. Debs was seeking the presidency? What wisenheimer ever allowed them to be a legal party once again? I have no clue.

Sen. Liz Warren is reaching out to the socialist voters, the people who do not know that communism and socialism are basically the same thing, just slightly different names. Socialism sounds nicer while communism sounds worse. Like her being ‘an Indian,’ she is no pro-American, she is pro-Big Brother. No way in hell.

Sen. Kamala Harris: if you like angry minority then she is for you. This woman is so peeved that she is not running away with the nomination that, much like Hillary, the anger and the hate oozes out of her pores like victory gin in “1984.”

What’s more, it is visceral, it is ugly, and it causes one to blanche whenever she opens her pouty lips and begins spewing yuck. Perhaps a body bath of Genusel® would bring back some vigor to her turkey neck? Sounds mean, I know, but true, folks, true. Voters would not vote for Hillary and they won’t vote for the ‘wicked witch of the west.’

Sen. Amy Klobuchar: you know, she sounds reasonable although she looks like a dog, bow wow. Still, if she is the nominee and were to become president, I could handle it because she is seeking all categories of voters and not just competing for one or two groups.

Sen. Cory Booker: you know, this man makes sense. He looks like a goofball and acts like one; however, he seems reasonable and compared to some of the other slobbering losers, if he became president, I might be able to handle it.

Vice President Joe Biden- still looking good[iv]. He is sane, he ripped Steyer a good one when he mentioned his coalmine operation in Australia. It will depend on who his vice president will be. Cory Booker, Tulsi Gabbard, or Amy Klobuchar might work because they will back him up and most likely follow him after one term. At least, he will accomplish his dream.

Friends, who knows where things will end up? I suspect that Yang, Steyer, Liz, Mayor Pete will be gone but some of the others will persevere. I guess we shall see. Place your bets now.

Want to thank our benefactors for their kindness and we will meet again tomorrow. Thank you and God bless. Let’s hope the American people make the right decision as to whom should lead the Democratic Party forward next year.

[ii] I predict the Central Five- Buttigieg, Biden, Sanders, Warren, and Harris will be the nucleus of the race from this point forward. The problem for Tom Perez, the man in charge of the DNC, is that he needs to get the other five and the rest of the goobers still out there seeking the nomination like Julian Castro, Wayne Messam, and the other losers out ASAP.

[iii] Washington state Governor Jay Inslee entered the race on March 01, 2019 and exited on August 21, 2019, becoming the third to drop out after Congressman Eric Swalwell (the first) and Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper (the second). Swalwell entered on April 08, 2019 and abandoned the race on July 08, 2019. Hickenlooper entered the race on March 04, 2019 and bailed out on August 15, 2019.

[iv] No matter what happens, Joe Biden is still looking good. It makes one curious as to whether Hillary will hitch up her shit-kicking boots for another go at it or if she will remain on the sideline watching the circus continue. We shall see.

[v] This was long overdue. We can thank Republican President Richard M. Nixon for opening the door to the New China.

WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK OUR PATRONS AND BENEFACTORS FOR KEEPING OUR BLOGS UP-AND-RUNNING. WE APPRECIATE WHAT THEY DO AS SHOULD YOU. WE ALSO THANK GOOGLE FOR BEING THE GREAT ORGANIZATION THEY ARE…AND FRIENDS AND FOLLOWERS, BUY MORE OF THE GOODS WE OFFER AS EVERY PURCHASE KEEPS THE LIGHTS ON, THE WATER RUNNING, AND THE PLUMBING WORKING…

Don’t laugh, folks. Money is the mother’s milk of politics (as well as of private life). All monies these candidates raise, although subject to scrutiny, can still be manipulated, moved around, and pop up somewhere else. On occasion, a politician here and another there will get called on the carpet for mishandling campaign funds but most of the time, they manage to abscond with their riches.

“JTF: I don’t envy DNC boss Tom Perez what with more candidates entering the battle for the 2020 nomination even as others drop out; it’s going to get bloody” by Chef Murph MacDougal

FALL SESSION 2019

BLOG POST #3,301 AT THE AICP-END

357 DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY 2020

The more the merrier- the more Democrats enter the fray as others withdraw, the more it’s going to resemble a Democratic “Night of the Long Knives”

San Luis Obispo, CA 93403, 11-14-2019 Thursday: Back in June of this year, I wrote a post about the first Democratic Party presidential debate and who was going to participate in it. That first one was crazy what with twenty people participating, all going toe-to-toe with one another seeking that breakthrough moment that would put them on a trajectory with winning the nomination of their party. Since then, quite a few have tumbled onto the side of the road while a core group of hardcore leftist-socialists managed to move on and who have more or less managed to be in all (or most) subsequent debates.

The upcoming debate will occur on November 20, 2019, six days from now. As of the sixth of this month (the cutoff was yesterday), the participants will be:

Since that first fiasco with twenty hopefuls going up against one another, Kirsten Gillibrand[xi], John Hickenlooper[xii], Jay Inslee[xiii], Beto[xiv], Tim Ryan[xv], Eric Swalwell[xvi], and Bill Di Blasio[xvii] have fallen out.

Others still in the running but so far have not yet qualified are John Delaney[xviii], Steve Bullock[xix], Julian Castro[xx], Wayne Messam[xxi] (really? Drop out, loser), Marianne Williamson[xxii], Michael Bennett[xxiii], and I think Joe Sestak[xxiv]. We also have Michael Bloomberg floating the possibility of him running which I think will garner as much positivity as Mayor Di Blasio did. Namely, NOT MUCH.

I imagine there are one or two others I may have overlooked but here’s the deal: IF I can’t name them, they mean little to nothing except to those who care about them. Why are Mayor Messam and Congressman Sestak even in the running? They can’t get on the debate stage any more than Seth Moulton[xxv] could, they can’t earn any followers so perhaps it’s the most American dream of all, they are socking away whatever money they do raise to use elsewhere such as in their private lives.

Don’t laugh, folks. Money is the mother’s milk of politics (as well as of private life). All monies these candidates raise, although subject to scrutiny, can still be manipulated, moved around, and pop up somewhere else. On occasion, a politician here and another there will get called on the carpet for mishandling campaign funds but most of the time, they manage to abscond with their riches.

Add to this the fact each of them can go about crowing about having been a ‘presidential contender’ as though they truly possessed the nomination of their party and went down to stinging, remorseless defeat. Being a former presidential candidate might earn one free drinks in a tavern but on the BIG STAGE, it means absolutely nothing, zip, zero, zilch, nada. Boom!

I understand, too, that the make or break moment to get onto the ballot in New Hampshire and possibly Iowa is tomorrow. So, we will see if Hillary Rodham Clinton enters the fray just as we will if some other, as of now unknown candidate (many on the left are pining away for Michelle Obama) will jump into the ring to seek the championship belt.

If tomorrow is the last day to enter one’s name onto the ballot in New Hampshire, why then, is Mayor Bloomberg’s underlings entering him in Alabama, one among the bevy of states of Super Tuesday? If he is serious, why not try to win as many primaries as possible so one can amass the necessary delegate count? You know, the BIG 270?

02-June-2020: Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico, and South Dakota Primaries

06-June-2020: U.S. Virgin Islands Caucuses

16-June-2020: District of Columbia Primary

When it comes to the debates, here is something I said back in that June 01, 2019 post; see if you agree:

“Although DNC Chairman Tom Perez celebrates the number of candidates, he has to feel like the ringmaster at a three-ring circus. It is going to be ugly as the requirements for the successive debates will continue growing tighter and tighter. The amount of political bloodshed will be astounding, to say the least.” (MacDougal, 01-June-2019)

It is going to be exciting to watch and if former Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick[xxvii], if Hillary[xxviii], or Michelle, or some as yet other unknown enters the race, wow. Heck, if I were Howard Schultz[xxix] and I saw this dimwit Bloomberg entering the scuffle, I might do a doubletake and return to the running. It is going to be months and months of the ‘Night of the Long Knives’ as desperate candidates seek to whack one another. Yikes.

See you tomorrow.

Above, you see the caricature created for me by Bakersfield street artist, the amazing Simone. We have gone this route because of increasing threats against the blog and its members. I began my career as a young chef in the kitchen back in 1975, earlier than that. I apprenticed underneath my father and spent six years working for him in his British-Irish restaurant in Fresno, California. I later moved to Frazier Park, California, and spent quite a few years working in the area and that is where I met Stinkbug. Anyhow, I am now working at a country club over on the coast near San Luis Obispo. Please note: this is my pen name and any photos of me are simply outdated photos adopted for maintaining my privacy.

Mott the Hoople released their next archival live show, “Fairfield Halls Live,” on October 09, 2007.

[i] CHOMO Joe entered the race on 21-April-2019 and despite being buoyant in the polls, always manages to bob back up to the surface as anyone who attacks him usually plummets straight down into the basement. Ask Julian Castro how things are going for him? Ask Senator Harris how things are going for her? She should be leaving the race SOON.

[ii] “Creepy” Cory Booker announced on 01-February-2019. It’s a wonder this loser remains in the race.

[iii] Entered the race on 14-April-2019. The only reason Mayor Pete garners the interest that he does is (1) because he is a homosexual and (2) he speaks well. He also was a REMF as well as guy who loves kissing his hubby on TV (although his Christian pastor brother-in-law is overly critical of his fake origin story).

[v] Announced on 21-January-2019 on the 90th birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. She only achieved her AG spot in the state of California and her U.S. Senate seat because she was banging former California Assembly Speaker Willie Brown.

[vi] Announced on 10-February-2019 in a blinding snowstorm in Minnesota. Although not a looker, compared to some of the other nuts, she would be preferable. Still, she hasn’t got a snowball’s chance in hell.

[vii] Official announcement on 02-March-2019 in Chicago, Illinois. We all knew the old commie was running.

[viii] This owner of Australian coalmines and private prisons across the United States and now self-professed climate warrior (yeah, right, you can’t be that if you destroyed thousands of acres of koala bear habitat so you could mine for coal) entered the race on 08-July-2019. How he believes he has a chance is beyond any of us. We expect him to leave and soon. He can go back to pushing impeachment of Donald J. Trump. Oh, wait, that slobbering feces-eater Adam Schiff stole that one from Steyer. Go home, Steyer, go the f**k home.

[xi] Announced on 15-January-2019 and withdrew from the race on 28-August-2019. She was the FIFTH Democrat to withdraw from the race after receiving absolutely little to no buzz, so boring and so disingenuous is she.

[xii] The former Colorado governor entered the battle on 04-March-2019 and bailed out on 15-August-2019. Although he plans to challenge the GOP senator in his state- Cory Gardener- it is doubtful he will be able to win that seat unless he provides free marijuana edibles to every voter. He was the second putz to withdraw from the race.

[xiii] Announced on 01-March-2019 and became the THIRD Democrat to drop out of the race. He did so on 21-August-2019. His lackluster performance and his quick withdrawal demonstrates what a loser a campaign based solely on GLOBAL WARMING will get you: NOTHING.

[xiv] This incredibly ignorant and highly untelegenic candidate entered the fray on 14-March-2019 to enthusiastic crowds of millennials around the country. After swearing to take away everyone’s guns in the third or fourth debate, this amazingly stupid loser had to withdraw from the running on 01-November-2019. He was the EIGHTH Democrat to abandon the running to his betters.

[xv] He entered the race on 04-April-2019 and while somewhat sane when compared with his fellows, his campaign was as exciting as watching seagull droppings harden on the sidewalk. He left the race on 24-October-2019 becoming the SEVENTH Democrat to leave the running. Boo hoo.

[xvi] This dingbat entered the race on 08-April-2019 and left it on 08-July-2019 becoming the FIRST Democrat to bail out because NO one knows who the hell he was and if they did know, they wondered why a cretin such as he even thought he had an opportunity? This guy should lose his congressional seat in November 2020 and go back to cleaning the streets. Dumb, ignorant f**k.

[xvii] This yoyo entered the race on 16-May-2019 and left it on 20-September-2019. How this halfwit ever thought he had what it requires to win the nomination is beyond any of us here at the AICP-END Blogs.

[xviii] Announced his run on 28-July-2017. He is the longest announced candidate for 2020.

[xix] Entered the race on 14-May-2019. Like Colorado Senator Michael Bennett, he has NO chance to win the 2020 nomination of the Democratic Party. The Montana governor is much too sensible to compete with the nuts in the running now.

[xx] Announced on 12-January-2019. After savaging Joe Biden in one of the first debates, his stock has plummeted to the crapper. This loser should withdraw from the race. Perhaps he can be our next ambassador to Cuba?

[xxi] The mayor of Miramar, Florida, entered the race on 28-March-2019. So what? He says he wants to eliminate ALL student debt and claims he has lured businesses away from the People’s Republic of (Communist) China. Oh, really? Name one.

[xxiii] Senator Bennett entered the race on 02-May-2019. While in a past life he might have gone the distance, now, he is too moderate, too sane, and has NO chance whatsoever of winning the nomination.

[xxiv] Congressman Sestak entered the race on 22-June-2019. Why he still is in it, no one knows unless, of course, it’s to raise loads of money (well, comparative ‘loads’ compared to others) so he can finance his future House campaigns.

[xxv] Moulton entered the race on 21-April-2019 and left it on 23-August-2019. He was the fourth Democrat to exit the contest.

[xxvii] Started putting out feelers on Monday, November 11, 2019. That should tell you something.

[xxviii] Hillary Clinton said on March 04, 2019 that she was NOT- I repeat- NOT going to seek the nomination. We all know she will.

[xxix] Announced he would not run on 06-September-2019 after critics said nasty things about him- IF he ran as an independent- would reelect Donald Trump to another term. Look, the former CEO of Starbucks seems like a good guy, it’s a shame that leftist nuts terrorized him into submission.

[xxx] We expect to present the music of the Jackson Five and Michael Jackson sometime in 2025-2026 so please stay tuned for future developments.

[xxxi] These are proto-communist movements and are backed by the Democratic Party in general and that POS communist Georgy Soros. Someone needs to whack this guy.

[xxxii] Question: the Democrats swore to us that Obamacare was the end-all, be-all for socialized medicine in this country. WHY is only Joe Biden the one wanting to keep it, fix it, and promote it? Why do the rest of the scum running for the 2020 nomination want to stuff Medicare-for-All down our throats (or up our keysters)? Enough is enough, already.

WE THANK OUR SUPPORTERS FOR STICKING BY US EVEN THOUGH GOOGLE BLOGGER HAS DUG THE SHIV IN OUR BACKS. EVERYONE SHOULD CUT THEIR BLOGGER PROGRAM LOOSE AND MOVE TO ANOTHER, MORE COOPERATIVE HOST…

Although DNC Chairman Tom Perez celebrates the number of candidates, he has to feel like the ringmaster at a three-ring circus. It is going to be ugly as the requirements for the successive debates will continue growing tighter and tighter. The amount of political bloodshed will be astounding, to say the least.

522 DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY 2020

Today, I share with you the 2020 Democratic Party’s primary debate schedule and the candidates…

San Luis Obispo, CA, 06-01-2019 Saturday: Welcome to the first day of June, I cannot believe how swiftly this year is flowing by. Before we know it, the Democratic Primary Debates will be upon us and Elizondo and I will be watching them, along with our employees as we have televisions in the kitchen and in various other work-stations. They should be a whole lotta fun, because for the first time, we will see them going at one another because at some point, like fighting cocks, they will have to go for the jugulars of their various opponents. Here is the schedule of Democratic Party 2020 Primary Debates:
